6. Water with food at mealtimes

　　吃放也不能喝水?

　　Now we are having a go at water! What next? Actually, drinking water before a meal is a much better idea. There is a simple reason for this. If you are drinking while eating, precious enzymes(酶) for your digestion are diluted(被稀释) and they are not nearly as effective.

　　7. Bacon and eggs

　　培根和鸡蛋真的不好消化啊

　　The problem with two proteins together is that it takes ages to digest them. Compare these with fruit which takes about half an hour. Meat and fish can take up to three hours! That is why having two proteins sources in the same meal is not really a good idea.

　　8. Bananas and milk

　　香蕉奶原来只是一个伪命题

　　This means that your banana smoothie(奶昔) may not be the best snack (零食，小吃)for you. The problem here is that the different digestion times will cause the fruit to curdle(凝固). Fruit, as we have seen, is very easily and quickly digested but milk is not. That means a lot of extra acidity(酸的含量) in your stomach. But you can ease the process by using ripe bananas and adding nutmeg(肉豆蔻粉) to sweeten the deal.

　　9. Honey and tea

　　蜂蜜茶原来也是一个传说

　　What better way of sweetening your tea than adding honey. The problem here is that once honey melts in the tea, it is going to produce more toxins(毒素) and alsoclog(堵塞) up the body’s channels. This is why honey is better with a cold drink or on its own.

　　10. Salt in salads

　　沙拉不放盐

　　You don’t need extra salt, so why put it in salads as well? Another problem is that salt will drain the salad leaves of their moisture and all the other valuable nutrients(养分;营养物) as well. We all need a little salt but going overboard on salty snacks (even soda contains salt!) is not a great idea. Doctors and heart specialists say that we need 2,400 milligrams of salt a day – that is one teaspoon.
